Locals say Shadow Cliffs received a Mt. Lassen stocking on Monday, and with a CDFW stocking also projected for this week, trout action should remain good into the new year. Anglers are using mice tails, Kastmasters, and jigs off the main dock and near the trout tube with decent success, but rainbow or green PowerBait has been the most consistent. Some anglers report that a garlic or corn scent is drawing more bites. Quite a few big Lassens being caught with state stockers peppered in.

Bass anglers are finding fish in the back lakes on natural-colored swimbaits, with or without an underspin. It's winter, so keep your retrieve slow.
